NH homeowner confronted by burglar

LYMAN, N.H. (AP) — Police say a man was confronted by a burglar in his yard as he arrived home in Lyman, N.H.

The homeowner saw a strange vehicle in his yard and discovered a window screen had been ripped open Wednesday afternoon.

Police said a man then left the house through the front door, carrying a jewelry box and a revolver from the home. The man reportedly said to the homeowner not to do anything foolish before running to his car and leaving.

A state trooper later spotted the vehicle in Lyman, but an attempt to catch up with it was unsuccessful.

Police said the vehicle was found abandoned a short time later in a wooded area in Lyman. It was stolen out of Littleton. Police are still looking for the suspect.
